About this property

Historic Downtown Hudson Home

An original 1833 home in the heart of Hudson Historic District. Recent award-winning restoration preserving original features and character, while adding updated amenities. Stroll down to nearby shops and a selection of great independent restaurants, or enjoy cooking in the farmhouse-style dine-in kitchen. Cuyahoga Valley National Park is close by with 100+ miles of trails for hiking, biking and trail running. Kayak the beautiful Cuyahoga River. Short drive to enjoy the world renowned Cleveland Orchestra at their summer home at Blossom Music Center. Easy access to all the sporting events and rich culture of North East Ohio.
Our Greek Revival home is spacious and full of natural light. A ton of character from the exposed post and beam structure and original woodwork dating back to the early New England settlers. At night it's very cozy with comfy leather furniture in front of a blazing log fire. The kitchen is fully equipped to prepare gourmet meals from local farm produce and the Heinens grocery store in walking distance.
We're an English couple fully immersed in the cultural, culinary and outdoor delights of our region. We're totally ready to provide you all the help you need in planning a spectacular stay at our home.

Charming getaway weekend

This is the most beautiful home. It had lots of character, was very clean and well stocked and the owner was very nice. We came for 3 days to explore the area and were not disappointed. The proximity to shops and restaurants cannot be beat. We would stay here again in the future.

Historical home in the green

Lovely historical home with modern conveniences located right in the center of Hudson. I could even hear the clock tower chiming! We loved the fireplace which gave the place a wonderfully cozy feel during the snow storm. Our considerate host cleared the snow from driveway and walks!

We wanted to live here! Cozy and Charming

Such a cute property and very charming house! My kids mentioned they wanted to live there permanently. There were games in the cabinets and it’s walking distance from downtown Hudson. It was a relaxing retreat that was still in town. You can’t ask for more.

A Christmas Visit

The best thing (among many, many pluses) is the location of this property. Hudson is a wonderful place to be during the holiday season and the proximity to the shops is incredible. Both the owner and the property manager were attentive to our needs as well. Old houses have many creaks and quirks—this one does as well, so it would be unfair to compare it to a modern house or hotel. That said, we found this gem of a place exceeded our expectations.

Historical and sophisticated

Enjoyed a long weekend in this lovely renovated old house in the heart of Hudson - a fascinating Connecticut western reserve. The house combined lots of original features with modern comforts and was well stocked and spotlessly clean. Highly recommended!

Wayside House: Historic Treasure

The owners of this house clearly this wonderful, historic property steps from First & Main. Before we arrived, the owner sent a welcome text offering us early check in. The house is immaculately maintained. The owners even leave a helpful manual for anything you need to know about their home. A bonus feature is the small but mighty bluetooth sound system. We had a fantastic stay at the Wayside House and hope to be back soon.

Great stay in Hudson

We had a great stay at this adorable historic home. In town for a wedding but had some time to explore too. Hudson is so cute! Great lunch at Farmer’s Rail and REALLY great dinner at Downtown 140; highly recommend. So nice to come ‘home’ to this charming house too … had all the comforts of home. We esp loved the sunny screened-in porch for coffee each morning 💙

Charming historic home

We loved the charm of this beautiful historic home. It had all the modern amenities we needed to make our stay comfortable. I loved all of the information about the home and the town that the host provided for us. The house is walking distance to great restaurants, Heinen"s grocery, and plenty of shops and services. Cuyahoga Valley National park is well worth the visit, even in the rain. If the weather would've cooperated we could've enjoyed the lovely patio and back yard. The sunroom was a nice alternative though! Stuart was a great host and the care taker was just as kind! Our families would recommend this this home! restaurants

Hudson family stay

Super convenient location to all of downtown Hudson. Pretty much just walked everywhere. House had everything we needed and the host was super responsive. Only minor downside is all the traffic going by but from inside the house it was still pretty quiet.

Beautiful historical home

This home has been lovingly restored. The home has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need. There is plenty of space to relax in the kitchen and living room and there is a screened porch overlooking a beautiful flower garden. The home is within walking distance of downtown Hudson with restaurants and shopping. You are also close to both Cleveland and Canton. I will definitely stay here again.

Perfect Home for Exploring Hudson

This is a gorgeous historic home full of amenities! Check in was easy, the house was spotless, and the garden is top notch. The hosts provide thoughtful little touches like a small bag of pre ground coffee and some common condiments/spices for you to use. If I go to Hudson again I am definitely staying here.
